The Union conducted its business yesterday and has the following report:

Nominations were called for by the Election Committee for the office of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, and there will be an election for the office of President.

Myself as the current President and Desk Technician Demiah Smith will be running for the office of President.  The election committee will be reaching out to the candidates to review the rules and will conduct an election, more information will follow.  The office of Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer were not challenged, and Rich Winter, Diane Papas and Susan Phillips have been reelected for another three-year term.
